Storytelling Saves Lives (Anastasia’s Brave)

Our Turn to Talk w/Anastasia Vlasova

Our host, 19-year-old Anastasia Vlasova, opens Season One by sharing her own mental health story and why she’s so passionate about starting this podcast. From her internship with This Is My Brave, Inc. (TIMB), to starting her freshman year at New York University, Anastasia understands how mental health affects her generation, and she’s ready to do something about it. She’s especially motivated by new research by Dr. Kristin Kosyluk, director of the Stigma Action Research Lab at the University of South Florida, about how storytelling saves lives. You’ll also meet This Is My Brave co-founder Jennifer Marshall and learn about the impact that the organization has had on breaking down stigma surrounding mental illness and addiction.
